Squak Mountain Stone – A Fibrous-cement material comprised off 49% post-industrial materials, which include recycled glass, type f coal-fly ash, and 2.5 % post-consumer mixed waste paper, in addition to low carbon Portland cement and iron oxide pigments. Material is hand-cast into “slabs” as an alternative to natural or quarried stone. Squak is available in five earthy colors that resemble soapstone or limestone, all of which would be a beautifully subtle addition to any interior environment. The real beauty in this product is that it is meant to be different: it is not meant to be perfect. Its appearance is rugged, it’s rustic, it’s varied, and, imagine this, its seams will show!
